The biomass problem
• Policy– Reduced attention for Biomass
• Complexity– Knowledge– Logistics– Combining technologies
• Co-operation– Fractionised experience
• Financing

Comparison of Bioenergy with other R.E.
AdvantagesAdvantages ChallengesChallenges
• Competitive
• High volume
• Variety: Heat - power - transport - chemicals
• Wide range of power
• Environmental
• employment in rural areas for all intellectual levels and all sectors (agriculture, industry, services)
• Collection of feedstock
• Environmental and social constraints
• Complexity of technology
![Page 8: Together for technological progress in Biomass EUBIA, European Biomass Industrial Association Norbert N. Vasen on behalf of Dr. G. Grassi, Secr. Gen of](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56649eb15503460f94bb670f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Bioenergy in the E.U.
Wide commercial application of modern Bioenergy
in the E.U. not yet started
• Promotion of biomass heat in CEEC– To start with most practical option
• A keen eye to more sophisticated technologies– CHP
– Syngas / DME / hydrogen (next slide)
– Ethanol with Sweet Sorghum (next slide)
![Page 9: Together for technological progress in Biomass EUBIA, European Biomass Industrial Association Norbert N. Vasen on behalf of Dr. G. Grassi, Secr. Gen of](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56649eb15503460f94bb670f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Promising technological combinations
• Pellets chain
•Low value biomass (agriforestal waste)
•Collection with mobile pelletiser
•Carbonise syngas DME or hydrogen
•Sweet Sorghum combinated processes
•Bioethanol
•Bagasse (pellets as solid fuel)
•Food pellets for animals (grains + bagasse)

Example of Large Industrial Bioenergy Integrated Complex
(ongoing assessment)
70,000 ha sweet sorghum plantation

Actions needed- Definition of CEEC needs- Development comm. demonstration new energy vector:
- 20-25 years (coal: ~ 25 years; oil: ~ 30 years; nuclear: ~ 30 years; natural gas: ~16 years
- Funding for industrial development of bioenergy systems- Focused research and development of sub-systems
- in cooperation with the industry- Implementation strategy, similar to Nuclear, for selection of
best technologies- Definition of best systems- Design - Construction of demonstration plants
- Reinforcement of the international cooperation

What is Eubiawww.eubia.org
• European Biomass Industrial Association
• Members are from industry and the research sector• Targeted to realisations
• Mission– Promotion of energy from biomass– Commercial deployment of European bioenergy technologies– Co-operation through projects in third countries
![Page 13: Together for technological progress in Biomass EUBIA, European Biomass Industrial Association Norbert N. Vasen on behalf of Dr. G. Grassi, Secr. Gen of](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56649eb15503460f94bb670f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The main activities of EUBIA are to assist its members in
Bioenergy industry strategiesIdentification of business opportunitiesConsultation with EU institutions on programmes, project, standardsAssistance to benefit from the “Single Market”Operation of an information network for BioenergyPromotion of industrial consortia for specific bioenergy complexes / systemsDevelopment of education and training programmesAssistance in European patent proceduresImplementing co-operation programmes with non-EU Countries
At present, intensive work on projects in China Promotion in Eastern Europe, Latin America and Africa.
Providing office and conference facilities in the very centre of Brussels

Conclusion
• Biomass complexity needs co-operation• Weak political attention calls for strong
biomass group• Many opportunities for concrete business
– Waiting to be exploited
Let us start to realise practical solutions
And come together in Rome, 10-14 May
